66. Mom's concern
"Hey? Mom!"
Jin Xiao didn't dare not answer my mother's phone call, so he answered the phone immediately, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Hey? I'll have you eaten?"
On the phone, my mother's voice was still so familiar.
"I'm just about to eat, where are you? Dad hasn't gone back yet?"
Jin Xiao asked with a smile.
No matter when, talking to parents is always so happy. No matter how good or bad he is in his mood at this time, as long as he has received a call from his parents, his mood will immediately get better.
"Your father is still the same, lying at the entrance of the chimney and watching, when will the smoke come out and when will he know how to come back?"
My mother said with a little complaint.
In fact, this is a folk saying in Beiyun. I don’t know if there is any other place. The general meaning is that someone always comes back at meal time and doesn’t know how to help cook some food early. The big chimney is filled with smoke, which was a symbol of starting to cook in the past. Looking at the smoke from the chimney, you can tell when the family starts to cook and when the meal is ready.
My dad is not busy at work, but he doesn’t have free time. He is the type of “even if you sit, you have to sit for a whole day.”
Sometimes it’s good to think about it, at least it’s not tiring, but sometimes it’s quite annoying, because when you have something serious and need him to be hungry, he always can’t come back.
"I won't talk about your dad anymore. My mom hasn't asked you how you have been recently? Are you still used to it in Pengcheng? The weather is hot there, remember to change clothes and take a shower frequently. Didn't you say you want to work and study? How? Are you tired? Can you have a good meal at noon? School is about to start, so don't delay school registration. And how about your food? Take a photo of your mom if it's right, otherwise you won't feel at ease. Last time you said you lived in a classmate's house. I don't know what kind of classmate you are. Is it convenient? Is it safe..."
On the phone, the mother's nagging voice may make many people disgusted, but Jin Xiao never disgusted her mother's nagging. On the contrary, sometimes he likes to listen to her mother's voice, because only when her mother talks can he truly feel the other person's care.
"Mom, my dear mom, don't worry.
Your son, I eat well and sleep well. I am the kind of man who is like a young man. He can live well anywhere and adapt well to any environment.
I did a good job in working part-time. I worked in a travel agency, worked as a clerk for others, and helped the leader arrange routes and other things. I did a good job. The leader was very satisfied with me and paid me more than 5,000 yuan a month. He also tried to keep me, but unfortunately I still had to go to school, so I could only refuse him.
The place I live is a local netizen I added in the post bar. He is the same age as me and has been admitted to Pengcheng University. We met by chance. We found out that they were classmates as soon as we contacted each other, so we lived in his house. Don’t worry, it’s safe and convenient. His family is his own. His parents are going out for a trip, so I will pay the room fee for him. Don’t worry.
It’s easy to eat. I usually eat at the company and occasionally go out for dinner with my colleagues at night. Sometimes when I come back, I cook it myself. It’s very convenient. After a while, I’ll take a photo for you to see.”
Jin Xiao explained slowly.
There were lies in between words. In fact, he really didn't want to do this. It wasn't because he was pretentious, he had no choice.
He has money, he trades stocks, he buys cameras, he lives in a luxury house, he can tell anyone, but he can't tell his parents and family, because he is afraid of scaring them.
Some people may say, why are parents scared? Is it not good to have money? Is it scared if I have money? This is simply nonsense.
But is this really nonsense?
It seems to be nonsense. You can imagine that your parents are ordinary people who are honest and always have a lifetime of friends. They are unwilling to make money from others even if they are cheap. If you really suddenly tell them that they have 100 million yuan, imagine their true reactions. It is best to think from the perspective of others. Who can say that their parents are scared is nonsense?
Especially Jin Xiao's parents, they are honest and honest all their lives, and they have to be careful in their daily lives. If they immediately show them everything that Jin Xiao has now, they can only be their questioning, asking Jin Xiao where the money comes from, whether it is illegal, whether he has done something wrong, whether he...will encounter any danger.
Because in their lives, there is almost no chance to get rich overnight, nor will they have such ideas. In the eyes of their parents, it is the right thing to do when they are honest and work with peace of mind.
We cannot say that their ideas are definitely correct, but we cannot say that they are wrong. We can only say that their lives have chosen a more stable path, so there are few changes.
People who have been like this for half of their lives, today you told him that you suddenly became a billionaire. Guess what they would think?
The first idea to ensure that you have committed a crime?
This is not "speculating on others with evil ideas", but "worrying about others with concern". Jin Xiao's parents are such people, so how dare he tell the truth? He really doesn't want his parents to worry about this.
So he could only lie, but it didn't matter. The wedge has been tied up, and I just waited for the next time to go home, and I would gradually expand the pace of the layout.
At most, it will be for four or five months to hide it from your parents.
And now he found that he has really many ways to "make money", not only stocks, but also futures, IP reselling, trademark reselling, etc., and even Bitcoin!
It's really strange. Jin Xiao only discovered recently that he actually had a "criminal record" in Bitcoin speculation. It was probably the time between mid-year and the end of the year. At that time, he had more than 1,000 Bitcoins in his hands, and then sold more than 500 at one go at the end of last year. At that time, when the price of Bitcoin was the highest, the price of one exceeded 150,000. Jin Xiao made more than 70 million in one hand, and then he threw all the more than 70 million into the futures market, which led to the source of his current income of one million or two million a day.
What an exaggerated system, even this can be arranged. Not only that, the system even made the time for Jin Xiao to mine coins, collect coins, sell coins, sellers’ information, etc.
Not to mention that no one really checks, even if someone checks, they will ensure that nothing can be found, because after searching, all these transactions are reasonable and legal.
With these "information", Jin Xiao is more confident about getting his parents by himself. As long as he can go back to get his parents by his holiday, he will be more full of unlimited expectations in the future.
OK, it's a long way to go...
Anyway, I chatted with my mother for a while, and after hanging up the phone, I took two photos of the meal for her.
Jin Xiao specially avoided all items that may be very valuable and only took pictures of bowls and plates as much as possible. In fact, these plates and bowls look white and clean, and are actually German 300 brands, which are from Maisen's. They are tens of thousands of yuan for one set, which is really very expensive. But their expensiveness depends on quality and style. Of course, there are particularly eye-catching things about the appearance, but there are also very low-key ones. Jin Xiao uses the low-key ones, pure white plates, which look ordinary and nothing great.
The dinner was fried pork with oil, cold cucumber, water and radish, and a bowl of tofu soup, which was light and refreshing, just in line with Jin Xiao's requirements. Although it was not as 100% suitable as the rice cooked by my mother, it was home-cooked and delicious after all. I felt very satisfied with a bowl of white rice.
